At Maoripride, we take pride in providing high-quality jackets that are designed to last. To help you maintain the look, feel, and durability of your jacket, we recommend following these care instructions. Proper care will ensure your jacket stays in excellent condition for years to come.

General Care Guidelines

• Read the Care Label: Always check the care label on your jacket for specific instructions. Each jacket is made from different materials that may require particular care.
• Avoid Direct Heat: Keep your jacket away from direct heat sources like radiators or heaters, which can damage fabric fibers and cause shrinkage or warping.
• Avoid Over-Washing: Jackets do not require frequent washing. Over-washing can wear down the materials. Spot cleaning is recommended for minor stains or spills.

Washing Instructions

Machine-Washable Jackets:

• Use a gentle cycle with cold water.
• Wash the jacket inside out to protect the outer surface.
• Use mild detergent, and avoid fabric softeners or bleach.
• Wash separately or with similar colors to avoid color bleeding.

• Fill a basin with cold water and a small amount of mild detergent.
• Gently submerge the jacket and soak for a few minutes.
• Lightly scrub areas with stains and rinse thoroughly.
• Avoid wringing or twisting the jacket to prevent fabric damage.

• For jackets that require dry cleaning, take them to a professional cleaner. Inform them of the fabric type to ensure proper care.

Drying Instructions

• Air Dry: Hang the jacket on a padded hanger or lay it flat on a clean, dry surface. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent fading.
• Tumble Drying: If tumble drying is allowed, use a low-heat setting. Remove the jacket while still slightly damp and let it air dry completely.

Ironing & Steaming

• Ironing: Only iron jackets labeled as safe to iron. Use the lowest heat setting, and place a press cloth between the iron and fabric. Always iron inside out.
• Steaming: Steaming is often safer than ironing. Use a handheld steamer on low heat, keeping it a few inches away from the fabric to prevent water spots.

Storage Tips

• Hang Properly: Store your jacket on a sturdy hanger to maintain its shape. Avoid thin or wire hangers that can distort the shoulders.
• Avoid Compression: Do not store your jacket in tight spaces where it may become wrinkled. For long-term storage, cover it with a breathable garment bag.
• Seasonal Storage: Store jackets not in use in a cool, dry place. Avoid plastic bags that can trap moisture and lead to mildew.

Caring for Special Materials

• Leather: Clean with a damp cloth or use specialized leather cleaners. Apply leather conditioner to maintain suppleness.
• Wool: Spot clean wool jackets with a damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, take it to a professional cleaner.
• Synthetic Fabrics (Nylon, Polyester): Use a mild detergent and cold water. Avoid high heat when drying and do not iron directly on the fabric.

Waterproof and Weatherproof Jackets

• Re-waterproofing: To restore water-resistant properties, apply a waterproofing spray designed for outerwear.
• Spot Clean: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove mud and dirt without compromising the jacket's protective coating.

Repairing Small Tears

• Self-Repair: For minor tears, use fabric patches or sew with matching thread.
• Professional Repair: For more significant damage, consult a professional tailor or repair service.
